Overnight Oat Groats

Want to start your day off with a healthy meal that won’t leave you hungry again before lunch? Well, try our overnight oat groats. Overnight you say? But it’s breakfast, right? That’s the beauty of this recipe. You start it before you go to bed, and in the morning you just heat, eat, and go. Try it with fresh berries, yogurt, honey, or whatever your taste buds tell you sounds good.

Hi Susan,
Sorry for the delay. Do you have a rice cooker? That works great. Otherwise – bring to a boil on the stove, then reduce heat and simmer for 40 min. For overnight, simply bring to a boil, then remove from heat, cover overnight.
Thanks for the inquiry.

Hi,
The best way to do that is just to bring them to a boil first, then cover them overnight. They will be soft, a bit crunchy and delicious in the morning. Check out our recipe for “Crazy Breakfast”. It’s our favorite. Thanks,
Deb

Is it possible to make a granola from oat groats by boiling them first and then bake in over after stirring in maple syrup, honey, nuts and seeds etc? Will it be crunchy enough if baked at about 140-150°C for about 30 minutes?

Hi Purvi,
Absolutely. I could them in a rice cooker too. So simple. Then simply add your syrup etc. I think that would work better than baking – as they need a little moisture to soften.
Thanks for your inquiry.
